The Cincinnati Insurance Companies
     2025 Benefits Overview

     HEALTH & PRESCRIPTION PLAN
     The Health & Prescription Plan is a high deductible health plan administered by Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield®. It’s a PPO + HSA Plan+ and you
     will receive free preventive care when using an in-network provider. For non-preventive medical care and prescriptions, you pay 100% of the
     cost until the deductible is met. Once the deductible is met, the plan pays the full cost for covered in-network services, but only a portion of
     out-of-network services. Prescription costs are still subject to co-pays when the deductible has been met. Once you reach the out-of-pocket
     maximum, the plan pays 100% of your eligible expenses for the rest of the calendar year for both in-network and out-of-network services,
     including prescription costs.

     health care coverage and could get coverage and pay 50% or less of the total premium for any plan offered – even if your spouse prefers a
     different plan – are not eligible. Spouses may contact their employers to learn that percentage of premium they’re expected to pay.

       minor conditions – that are designed to allow you greater control when you need to see a doctor.
     HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNT
     Eligible associates have access to a Health Savings Account administered by Fidelity. The HSA is a pre-tax savings vehicle that allows you to save
     for eligible medical, dental, and vision expenses now and in retirement. It works in conjunction with the Health & Prescription Plan. The company
     may also make yearly contributions, and the money in your account is always yours to keep – what you don’t use, you don’t lose.

     amount at any time, up to the maximum yearly contribution limit.
     Details: A HSA debit card will be provided to you from Fidelity and you must have money in your HSA account to use it. For Anthem to apply charges
     against your deductible, present both your HSA card and medical card to health care providers and pharmacies. The company contribution(s) will be
     made after 30 days of enrollment in the HSA. We do not stop your contribution amounts from going over the maximum yearly limits – you must plan
     accordingly. You can add and update your HSA beneficiaries on Fidelity's website, 401k.com, or by calling 800-544-3716.

     DENTAL PLAN
     The Dental Plan makes affordable dental coverage available to all associates and is administered through Delta Dental. The focus of the Dental
     Plan is on proper preventive care. While the Dental Plan covers 100% of most preventive maintenance benefits, restorative benefits are paid at
     a lesser amount. If you add dependents at a later date, their coverage will begin on the first of the next month. You may use any licensed dentist
     you choose; however, the use of a network dentist in the Delta Dental PPO or Premier Network reduces your portion of dental care expenses.

     The Tax Advantage Plan is also known as a Flexible Spending Account. You can put money into your TAP account to reimburse your dental,
     vision, or dependent care expenses with before-tax dollars. Up to $640 of unused Dental and Vision TAP funds may be carried over for use the
     following year, if you elect Dental and Vision TAP for the next year. Your taxable income is reduced by the amount of money you place in TAP.
     You cannot transfer money between your Dental and Vision TAP and your Dependent Care TAP accounts. There is no debit card for your TAP
     account; associates seek reimbursement after paying for services rendered by submitting a TAP claim form with receipts to HR-Benefits, and
     reimbursements will be deposited into your selected checking account. The amount you pledge for the year cannot be changed.
     Dental and Vision TAP
     You may contribute to TAP regardless of your health, dental and vision plan choice. The full amount you pledge is available to you for
     reimbursement at any time during the year for eligible expenses incurred by you or your tax dependents.

     condition after you have actively worked 12 consecutive months. This benefit does not provide you with a continuation of pay for mental illness
     or functional nervous disorders, except during a period of confinement in an appropriate care facility. The period of disability for childbirth is
     generally 12 weeks. However, your period of disability could be extended to the maximum of 26 weeks if you continue to be disabled due to a
     pregnancy-related covered condition.

     Bi-Weekly Cost: No cost
     Eligibility: Regular, full-time associates
     Effective Date: After three months of full-time employment
     Enrollment Information: Associates are automatically enrolled
     Details: Associates will need to submit a Leave of Absence form and a Short-Term Disability claim form to the leave administrator in Human
     Resources – Benefits. The benefit goes into effect at the end of a 5-day waiting period. During the 5-day waiting period, you will need to use any
     remaining PTO, sick or vacation time – depending on your role. If you have exhausted all eligible paid time off, the waiting period will be unpaid.
     LONG-TERM DISABILITY
     Long-term disability offers you financial protection in the event you are disabled from working for an extended period of time. Coverage will
     replace 66 2/3% of your wages up to a maximum of $7,500 per month. Long-term disability begins after 26 weeks of short-term disability.
     Bi-Weekly Cost: Varies; Monthly Salary/100 x .2060 x 12/26
     Eligibility: Regular, full-time associates
     Effective Date: After three months of employment, or three months after the date you receive approval from the underwriting process.
     Enrollment Information: Associates can enroll within 30 days of hire and will be automatically accepted. If you decide to waive long-term
     disability and add it at a future date, you will need to go through an underwriting process. You may or may not be accepted under the plan when
     you go through the underwriting process.
     ASSOCIATE TIME OFF
     You deserve and need time off for rest and relaxation. The Cincinnati Insurance Companies offers you paid time off or vacation and sick time
     dependent upon your pay status and length of employment.
     Exempt Associates: Exempt associates are eligible for an allotment of PTO each year*.

         Years of Service                    PTO Days

     Non-exempt Associates: Non-exempt associates are eligible for an allotment of vacation time each year*.
     On days when your health does not permit you to work, non-exempt associates are eligible to receive sick days. Sick leave is computed on the
     basis of one-half day per month, for a total of six days per year. In the year of hire, sick leave is determined on a pro rata basis. Payment for
     earned, unused sick leave is paid in the new calendar year. All associates must submit a doctor’s note to the leave administrator after three or
     more consecutive days of absence.

     *All associates receive prorated PTO or vacation days within your first year of hire. All PTO or vacation time must be taken in the year it is granted; remaining days
      are forfeited.

     Holidays: Full-time associates receive seven paid holidays each year: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Memorial Day,
     Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Our company usually offers full-time associates an additional two days
     off during the year‑end holiday season.
